I need a copy of Ministry of Finance No. F.13(10)Reg-G-2008-413, dated 11.5.2001 whereby under court orders Cost of Living Allowance of 1994 was declared as pensionable. Pl check your system and record and let me know.

Dear Madam, I was compulsory retired as U.D.C. in the Scale No.7 from Pakistan Air Force in 1997, at that time UDC Scale was No.7. Now U.D.C. Scale has been No.11 instead of 7. I would like to ask you that this increase of U.D.C. from 7 to 11 is getting benefit present serving new U.D.Cs, in his salary. Those U.D.C. who was retired in 1997 at Scale No.7, then the Pensioner who was retired as UDC PREVIOUS SCALE NO.7 AND NOW UDC SCALE STARTING SCALE NO.11, I would like to say you that this increase Scale No.7 to 11 starting new scale of U.D.C, increasing financial benefit from Scale 7 to 11 is getting present serving UDCs, then this increasing financial benefit of Scale No.11 should be met previous retired UDCs who was retired in Scale No.7 because at that time UDC Scale was No.7.

It is submitted that in the year 2010 pay and pension of all government employees were increased by 50%. However only 20% raise was made in pensions, while 30% of pension amount was withheld for reasons better known to the concerned authorities. The arrears of 30% amount, which was withheld from the total 50% increase, still remain unpaid to pensioners since 2010.

Similarly, in the year 2011 an increase of 20% was given to all retired government employees in their pensions. While giving this increase, the government forgot to announce payment of arrears of 2010 to pensioners which otherwise should have been added in the increased amount of pensions.

Besides this, pensions of a large number of pensioners, particularly those who retired before 2000, were meagre as compared to those who retired later.

Moreover, they demanded 50 per cent increase in pensions. The increase in pensions this year should also be made applicable to the medical allowance as well. No increase in medical allowance of the retired employees was made during the year 2011, they claimed.

However, pensioners who knew rules and regulations managed to get full payment of 50 per cent increase in pensions in the year 2010. The affectees who claimed to have not received their full amount in pensions against 50 per cent increase should approach the Finance Ministry to get their grievances redressed,

The case regarding inclusion of 5 adhoc reliefs towards calculation of Pension was turned down by the SCP on 7.8.2013 setting aside the decision of FST of 22.2.2013 .one of appellants Mr Muhammad Iqbal submitted Review Petition (CMA 5969/2013) on 7.9.2013.The hearing was set on 16.5.2014.
To the much disappointment of all the pensioners the court has dismissed the case,possibly on the pretext that a huge amount of money is involved."Hay na ajeeb baat."The decision as soon as is received will be posted here.

would you pl see my remarks of 7th sept 2013.I have latest news regarding the inclusion of 5 adhoc.The supreme court of Pakistan has accepted the m/o finance point of view by setting aside the decision of FST of 22/2/2012

The case regarding inclusion of adhoc increase from July 1999 to July 2011 was decided in favor or appellant on 22 /2/2012 in FST. The min of finance instituted the case against the the decision of FST on 25/5/2012 in the Supreme court of Pakistan.

SCP accepted the point of view of MIn of Finanace and declared the decision on 7/8/2013 on the pretext that adhoc relief are not covered under CSR 486 which govern the rules for calculation of pension.Now some Individuals are planning for the review petition in SCP

Their is a lot of difference in pension of those pensioners who retired before budget 2011 and after budget 2011 in same rank. A pensioner retired on 01 July,2011 is getting almost double pension than other pensioner who retired on 30 June, 2011 in same rank and same service due to this cut of date. Kindly approach to concerned authorities for early finalization of this case in favor of pensioners.Thanks.

a good job keep it up. is it true that govt.has reviewed it in supreme court ? I had got premature retirement from Military Accounts and curious to know about the progress of this case. I have book marked this site

It is a great news. All adhoc allowances should be reckonable towards pension. The same has already been decided by Supreme Course for adhoc allowances announced by Nawaz Sharif and compansetory allowance of 1995. This should be settled for ever so that case are not put up one by one.
